Wow, you know that some bystanders can actually sue the dead man's estate for this I think.

My law professor was talking about a case a while back of a guy, a topless woman, and a bystander. The bystander was minding his own business when out of the blue he sees some guy pull out a gun and shoot the topless woman to death. The man then turned the gun on himself. The bystander was so emotionally disturbed by the scene that he sued the dead man's estate for damages and won.

how was her being topless pertient?
that is like saying she was a pharmacist, what does it have to do with her getting shot?

It was just a detail to flesh out the story.

don't worry about fobot. I don't know any stories that aren't made better by the addition of topless women.
 
I was reading alot about this guy.. appearantly was a pillar in his community, and helped spear an outreach program that assisted disabled people.

He expanded his business and hedged it against increasing property values, and with the latest mortgage crunch his property value declined, the only way to make it go back up was to have it rezoned commercial.

I think you guys are douchebags.

I'd love to see some of your guys lives go down the drain, and have a bunch of people tell you you're a loser.

It's pretty funny when the shoe is on the other foot.

Most of these retards here are under the age of 18. They don't have a clue about real life. It's true that ending yourself isn't the answer, but that doesn't give you the right sit here and act like a child and talk sh1t.

He made a business decision that went south. He tries to blame other people for his suicide based on that and a failed rezoning application, and does it in front of his wife leaving her in a world of shit. Respect for him = zero.

unless he was related to the topless woman or in the 'zone of danger' of physical injury I doubt he actually recovered anything.

His $9 haircuts were a bit pricier than some

9 bucks? thats cheap around here barbers charge a min of 13 bucks.

Seriously, where can you get a 9$ haircut. I'd like to know, although I wouldn't trust anyone charging 9$ with my lettuce.


I used to pay a lot of money to have my mullet taken care of in high school. Now I just wait for a $3.99 Great Clips coupon to show up.

I don't care if you don't respect him (and whether you do or not is immaterial), don't besmirch the dead.

Otherwise, give me the cemetary where your grandparents grave is, I'll go urinate them.

Don't be offended, I didn't respect them either.

maybe he had a nice life insurance policy and his family is now set.

I don't think they pay death benefits for suicide.

mine does, but it doesnt until ive had the policy two years. i didnt ask, and was rather surprised when the agent mentioned it.

No, it isn't immaterial, so you fail. This guy blew his top (pardon the pun, not that you will) and made the situation infinitely worse for the people left behind. He definitely didn't show them a lot of respect so I accord him none. Get over it.

As pissing on a grave and people cracking puns are one and the same thing. GG, that's some reach. What's next Mr E-thug, are you gonna tell some mom jokes? Oh noes!
